out to this beautiful home Of the

Keep But One Kind,

No one but fancier should keep
several breeds of fowls. Let the farm

the most pleasure to care for, and, as a
rule, the money received goes far to-
ward that end. The breeds that are
exhibited in the largest numbers and
in accordance with the popular de-.
mands are Light Brahmas, Wyandottes

field, has cat which he would not part
with for love or money. 1t belonged to
his wife, who is now dead, and for a year
past it has been his constant companion
in tie cab. The cat loves its life on the
rail, aud has grown sleek and fat shifting
the prairie winds. Ordinarily it sits
perched up in the cab window before its
master, but occasionally it strolls out to
the pilot, where it will ride for hours at a
stretch, winking knowingly at the dogs
which dart at the train as it thunders by
the crossroads. Sometimes when the
tram is approaching station the ad.
venturous animal climbs to the top of the
sand-box and calmly roosts there, unde.
tered by the shrek of the whistle or the
clang of the bell. The engine has had
good luck ever since the animal became
an occupant of the cab, and the trainmen
look upon it as mascot against disaster.

Work Necessary to Obtain a Profitabl.
Crop of Tubers.
TO a considerable extent the yield OF
the potato crop depends upon the cul-
tlvation. Good seed, good SOL and
thorough preparation are also ncccs-
sary, yet we may give all these, and If
we let the crop take care of itself the
result, to considerable extent, will be
failure. While each are in measure
necessary. yet, at the same time, thew
are dependent upon each other in
securing the largest yield. Having
the soil thoroughly prepared before
planting is an important aid toward
making the cultivation easier. 1t also
enables us to commence earlier than
we otherwise could.
Clean cultivation is very essential.
we can not secure the best growth of
potatoes and at the same time allow
good growth of weeds and grass. l
find it much easier to destroy the weeds
when small. Not only can the work
be done much easier, but the crop will
be able to derive larger amount of
benefit. Taking an average season, l
prefer to keep the soil reasonably
level. If the season is wet more billing
can be used to good advantage, be-
cause it is necessary to secure GOOD
drainage.
How often and how long the crop
should be cultivated depends largely
upon condition. No rule can be given
that will hit all seasons, or be an
plicable to all conditions of the soil.
1t is essential that the soil
should be kept loose and mellow and
the weeds be destroyed as thorough
ly as possible. The ne arer
these conditions are observed, pro-
vided, of course, that during the dry
season the soil is not disturbed too
deep, the better will be the yield both
In quality and quantity. If one good
narrowing and three good CIVILIZATIONS
with the cultivator will secure these
conditions, that is all that will be nee
essary. usually consider it necessary
to hoe over the rows, as, unless the
soil is very clean, it is somewhat diff
